Details Of Katie's Return To TV

We’re starting to get some details about Katie Holmes’s upcoming return to the small screen in Eli Stone.

According to the executive producer, Katie will be playing an attorney in her first TV role since Dawon’s Creek — an attorney who sings and dances, apparently!

Greg Berlanti, who was Katie’s boss on the 90s teen phenomenon before it wrapped in 2003, admitted that he was so deperate for her to make her big comeback on his show that he pleaded with her to take the part.

"I begged her and she said ‘I’d love to’," he told reporters today, before admitting that he asked the Ice Storm star to do it because he knew it would send his ratings through the roof.

Berlanti revealed that she will appear in the edisode "a significant amount" as the lawyer.
